Campaign reports: Trump receives briefing on ongoing threats from Iran to assassinate him

Former President Donald Trump was briefed by U.S. intelligence officials on threats from Iran to assassinate him, according to a campaign spokesperson. The briefing included information about specific and real threats intended to destabilize the United States. Law enforcement agencies are working to protect Trump and ensure election security. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence confirmed the briefing but did not provide details. Iran’s UN mission did not comment on the matter. The Secret Service increased security around Trump this year due to an alleged Iranian assassination plot. Iran denied the allegations. Trump had previously refused intelligence briefings to avoid leaks, but it is unclear if he has resumed them. Recently, there was another attempt on Trump’s life in Florida, resulting in an arrest. The Senate passed a bill to provide major presidential candidates like Trump with the same level of protection as President Joe Biden, which is now awaiting Biden’s signature. Biden has stated that the Secret Service needs additional support.
